Titan Medical Closes Public Offering

Titan Medical Inc. (“Titan” or the “Company”) (TMD.TO) (TMDI), a medical device company focused on the design, development and commercialization of a robotic surgical system for application in minimally invasive surgery (“MIS”), is pleased to announce the closing of its previously announced public offering (the “Offering”) pursuant to an agency agreement dated March 18, 2019 between the Company and Bloom Burton Securities Inc. (the “Agent”).

The Company closed the Offering on March 21, 2019 and issued 7,352,941 units (the “Units”) for gross proceeds of approximately US $25,000,000. Each Unit was issued at a price of US $3.40 per Unit (the “Offering Price”) and is comprised of one common share of the Company (a “Common Share”) and one warrant entitling the holder to purchase one Common Share at a price of US $4.00 until expiry on March 20, 2024.

The Agent also exercised, in full, the over-allotment option (the “Over-Allotment Option”) granted to the Agent in conjunction with the Offering and pursuant to the exercise of the Over-Allotment Option, the Company sold an additional 1,102,941 Units at closing at the Offering Price for additional gross proceeds to the Company of approximately US $3,750,000.

The closing of the Offering and the exercise of the Over-Allotment Option together resulted in total gross proceeds of approximately US $28,750,000 and the sale and issuance of 8,455,882 Units.

The Common Shares sold and issued in connection with the closing were listed and posted for trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol “TMD” and on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “TMDI” on March 21, 2019.

The Units were qualified for sale by way of a prospectus dated March 18, 2019 (the “Prospectus”) filed by the Company in each of the provinces of Ontario, British Columbia and Alberta, and a corresponding registration statement on Form F-10 (the “Registration Statement”) with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission under the U.S.-Canada Multijurisdictional Disclosure System. The Units were offered for sale in the United States through Northland Capital Markets, which was appointed by the Agent as a sub-agent. Northland Capital Markets is a division of Northland Securities, Inc., member FINRA/SIPC.

The net proceeds of the Offering will be used to fund continued development work in connection with the Company’s SPORT Surgical System, as well as for working capital and other general corporate purposes. Further details are disclosed in the Prospectus, available at www.sedar.com and the Registration Statement, available at www.sec.gov.

Related Party Transaction

An aggregate of 1,350 Units were issued to an insider of the Company under the Offering for gross proceeds of US $4,590. The insider subscription constitutes a “related party transaction” pursuant to Multilateral Instrument 61‐101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61‐101”). In completing the insider subscription, the Company relied on the exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61‐101 set forth in sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(a) of MI 61‐101, as the aggregate value of the insider subscription does not exceed 25% of the market capitalization of the Company. The Company did not file a material change report more than 21 days before the expected closing of the Offering due to the limited time between the commitment by the insider to purchase the subject Units and the closing.
